# Privacy Policy — GSW Stories **Effective Date: August 3, 2026** **Last Updated: August 3, 2026** Welcome to **GSW Stories**, a mobile application associated with **gbengawemimo.com** (the **“App”**, **“we”**, **“us”**, or **“our”**). GSW Stories provides soul-lifting stories, Christian spiritual content, inspirational messages, Bible content, reflections, and insights relating to everyday life experiences. We respect your privacy. The App is designed to provide content without requiring users to create an account, register, or sign in. This Privacy Policy explains what information the App handles and how it is used. ## 1. Information We Collect ### 1.1 No Account or Registration GSW Stories does not require you to: * Create an account * Sign in * Provide your name * Provide your email address * Provide a telephone number * Create a password * Provide payment information You can access the App's general content without creating a user account. ### 1.2 Information You Provide GSW Stories does not currently provide an account-based system or a backend database for storing user profiles. The App therefore does not intentionally collect or maintain personal user profiles. If you independently contact us through the website or another communication channel, any information you voluntarily provide may be processed for the purpose of responding to your communication. ## 2. Information Stored on Your Device GSW Stories may store certain information locally on your device to provide App functionality. This may include: * Bookmarked stories * Like or preference information * Daily content/pick information * App preferences or temporary cached information This information is stored locally on your device using the App's local storage functionality. **This locally stored information is not uploaded to or maintained in a GSW Stories user database or personal account system.** If you uninstall the App or clear its local application data, locally stored information may be removed. ## 3. Website Content and WebView GSW Stories obtains its primary content from **gbengawemimo.com**. Some content is displayed within the App using an embedded web browser component (WebView). When content is loaded from the website, normal internet communications may cause technical information, such as an IP address, to be processed by the website's hosting infrastructure. This processing is associated with delivering website content and maintaining the security and operation of the website. The App does not use this functionality to intentionally create a personal profile of individual users. ## 4. Bible Content The App may retrieve Bible text from **bible-api.com**. Requests to an external service may involve technical information necessary for internet communication, such as the user's IP address. The privacy practices of the external service are governed by that service's own policies. GSW Stories does not create a personal user profile from Bible-content requests. ## 5. Analytics and Advertising GSW Stories does not intentionally use: * Advertising networks * Behavioral advertising * Advertising identifiers for targeted advertising * Third-party analytics platforms * User-tracking platforms * Cross-app tracking technologies The App does not sell or rent user information to advertisers or data brokers. ## 6. Cookies and Similar Technologies The native GSW Stories application does not intentionally use cookies to track users. However, content displayed from **gbengawemimo.com** through the App's WebView may use technically necessary web technologies, including cookies, where required by the website. These technologies are used for website operation, security, or functionality and are not intentionally used by GSW Stories to create advertising profiles. ## 7. Third-Party Websites and Services The App may connect to or display content from third-party services, including: * **gbengawemimo.com**, which provides the primary content * **bible-api.com**, which provides Bible text The App may also contain links to external websites or services. Third-party services operate independently and may have their own privacy policies and data practices. We encourage users to review the privacy policies of third-party services they access through the App. ## 8. Data Security Because GSW Stories does not maintain user accounts or a user-profile database, we do not maintain a centralized database containing users' bookmarks, likes, or other personal profiles. Information stored locally on your device is subject to the security of your device and its operating system. We also take reasonable measures to protect the App and its supporting infrastructure. However, no electronic system or internet transmission can be guaranteed to be completely secure. ## 9. Data Retention and Deletion GSW Stories does not maintain a centralized personal user database. Information such as bookmarks, likes, and daily-pick data stored by the App remains on the user's device until it is removed by the user, the App is uninstalled, or the application's local data is otherwise cleared. If you contact us and voluntarily provide personal information, we will retain that information only for as long as reasonably necessary to respond to your request, maintain appropriate records, or comply with applicable legal obligations. ## 10. Children's Privacy GSW Stories does not knowingly collect personal information from children. The App does not require users to create accounts or submit personal information to access its general content. Parents and guardians should nevertheless supervise children's use of internet-connected applications and websites. If you believe that a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so that we can review the matter and take appropriate action. ## 11. Your Privacy Rights Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights concerning personal information we may hold about you. These may include the right to: * Request access to personal information * Request correction of inaccurate information * Request deletion of personal information * Object to certain processing * Request restriction of processing * Withdraw consent where applicable Because GSW Stories does not maintain user accounts or a centralized database of bookmarks and likes, most information stored by the App can be managed directly on the user's device. For other privacy requests, please contact us using the information below. ## 12. External Links GSW Stories may provide links to websites, social media platforms, videos, publications, or other resources operated by third parties. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of third-party services. Once you leave GSW Stories or access a third-party service, the privacy policy of that service applies. ## 13. Changes to This Privacy Policy We may update this Privacy Policy when the App's functionality, technology, services, or applicable legal requirements change. When we make changes, the revised Privacy Policy will be published on this page and the **Last Updated** date will be changed. We encourage users to periodically review this Privacy Policy. ## 14.
